6. I can play a few games on.
7. I can upload music onto if I wanted to.

I like my phone, I am happy with my phone I'm happy with what I get charged to use my phone each month.

Yet a little while ago, I was told my a colleague that I was a "sad individual" because that phone that I am perfectly satisfied with is an Iphone 3GS.

Said colleague was disgusted in the fact that it was an iphone 3GS and not a Iphone 4 and that it wasnt even an Android. I asked said colleague to explain themselves and the best reason that they could come up with was "iphones are sh*t", we then had a discussion about how their opinion didnt necessarily make that statement a fact and I felt like said colleague had called my parentage into question.

This is what p*sses me off. I could give two hoots whether one is better than the other. What I resent is the snobbery in both camps over which device is better.

I'm sure my iphone will do more than I use it for, But the ponit here is that its my iphone and I am happy with what it does. I dont need to tweak it, jailbreak it, hack it or fiddle with it. It does what I want out of the box, yet theres an implication that I am some kind of techno retard because I havent done this or that tweak on it.
